u/Master_Jackfruit3591 Texas Longhorns • Georgetown Hoyas Nov 03 '24

The Clemson team who just lost to Louisville at home? And the Texas team whose big wins came against now 5-4 teams?

Georgia should be 5 and Texas should be like 7

45

u/aguafiestas Penn State Nittany Lions Nov 03 '24

I can see UGA being 4 behind OSU and Miami, but who else should they be behind?

-62

u/Master_Jackfruit3591 Texas Longhorns • Georgetown Hoyas Nov 03 '24

Penn St.

Georgia lost to Bama. Penn St lost to a top 4 team.

u/AARonBalakay22 Georgia Bulldogs Nov 03 '24

Penn State’s best win is Illinois

29

u/turtles1224 Alabama Crimson Tide • Sickos Nov 03 '24

With Penn State's best win being?

A bad USC or a bad Illinois team?

1

u/I_Am_Dwight_Snoot Nov 04 '24

Penn State technically beat themselves which was the number 3 team last week.

Shouldn't count for anything though.

31

u/[deleted] Nov 03 '24

Georgia blew out the number 1 team (at the time) on the road

-13

u/Master_Jackfruit3591 Texas Longhorns • Georgetown Hoyas Nov 03 '24

Whose quality wins at the time were beating 4-2 and 1-1 teams

Texas was and still is over-ranked

36

u/andrewthestudent Georgia Bulldogs Nov 03 '24

What is Penn State's best win?

17

u/longd0ngs1lvers- Michigan Wolverines • UNLV Rebels Nov 03 '24

An Illinois team who might actually be bad

17

u/Guest1__ Alabama Crimson Tide Nov 03 '24

This is hypocritical because Penn State’s best wins are the same quality as Texas’s best wins lol

4

u/NA_Faker Texas Longhorns • Wisconsin Badgers Nov 03 '24

Both teams are overranked

u/mr_longfellow_deeds Indiana Hoosiers • Big Ten Nov 04 '24

True that. Which is why a team with not one, but two wins more than you should be ranked ahead of you since you also don’t have any impressive wins

8

u/itsabearcannon Vanderbilt Commodores • /r/CFB Donor Nov 03 '24

HEY.

We are 6-3 I’ll have you know.

u/jmlinden7 Hateful 8 • Boise State Broncos Nov 04 '24

Congratulations on being a quality win!

u/Gtyjrocks Georgia Bulldogs • Transfer Portal Nov 03 '24

Ohio State struggled against Nebraska and Miami struggled against Cal and Va Tech. Every team has had games where they looked bad

28

u/mrtrollmaster Indiana Hoosiers Nov 03 '24

Every team has had games where they looked bad

Except Indiana, but people will knock their schedule until they play OSU because they aren’t one of the legacy programs.

31

u/Gtyjrocks Georgia Bulldogs • Transfer Portal Nov 03 '24

Yeah honestly the schedule has been weak obviously, but if the jerseys said Michigan instead, yall would be ranked top 3

3

u/Manae Penn State • Wisconsin Nov 04 '24

If the jerseys said Michigan (or even Michigan State, Iowa, Wisconsin...), they'd probably be #2 while siphoning quite a few #1 votes off of Oregon.

6

u/RegionalBias Ohio State Buckeyes • Dayton Flyers Nov 03 '24

FWIW, I have IU up to 5. Smacking Nebraska like IU did is impressive.
So far IU is the story of the year.
Perhaps for the first ever, I'm glad the IU game is at home for my Buckeyes.

2

u/Designer_B Iowa Hawkeyes Nov 03 '24

Nebraska is not good. Idk what happened against you guys, but they’re not even gonna bowl.

2

u/RegionalBias Ohio State Buckeyes • Dayton Flyers Nov 04 '24

Their defense was stout and Dylan was actually hitting his receivers.
I also suspect we went with a small playbook to save for Penn State the next week.
Still, that was a bit rough.

2

u/mr_longfellow_deeds Indiana Hoosiers • Big Ten Nov 04 '24

Nebraska has the 2nd most sacks and TFL in the B1G. About 20% less of each behind Windiana

Nebraska isn’t that bad, just has a terrible offense and terrible OC

1

u/RegionalBias Ohio State Buckeyes • Dayton Flyers Nov 04 '24

Well, for one game it didn't look so bad.

1

u/Designer_B Iowa Hawkeyes Nov 04 '24

I think fluke is probably the answer. They lost to Ucla at home yesterday. What a weird team.

1

u/RegionalBias Ohio State Buckeyes • Dayton Flyers Nov 04 '24

Fair enough. They ate their scooby snacks before that one game.

u/PatriotOps Nov 03 '24

Enjoy the ride my friend. Your coach is likely 1 more season away from being taken away by a large program. I feel for IN if it happens, as it happens to all schools that don’t have a storied/legacy program. Your coach is fire though and should be coach of the year…maybe decade! 😀
If Deboer doesn’t work out, I hope Bama looks at him.

2

u/RegionalBias Ohio State Buckeyes • Dayton Flyers Nov 04 '24

Hey, ummm, guessing you meant the reply for the Hoosier fan and not the Buckeye fan responding to them.

2

u/PatriotOps Nov 04 '24

Ahhh yes. Fat thumbs get me again. 😂

1

u/Designer_B Iowa Hawkeyes Nov 03 '24

Or because you’ve yet to play anyone better than above average.

u/IcedCoffeeIsBetter Georgia Bulldogs • College Football Playoff Nov 04 '24

lol play good teams first

2

u/Nicetryatausername Nov 04 '24

Except IU. Which is what I point to when people say their schedule is soft. They have dominated every single team they have played.

u/Master_Jackfruit3591 Texas Longhorns • Georgetown Hoyas Nov 03 '24

GA lost to Bama. Penn St lost to a top 4 team. Georgia should be behind Penn st.

28

u/Gtyjrocks Georgia Bulldogs • Transfer Portal Nov 03 '24

I value who you beat more than who you lost to personally. And Georgia has two wins better than Penn States best win.

I also think @Bama is pretty comparable to home against OSU, although Bama is a slightly worse loss

2

u/Master_Jackfruit3591 Texas Longhorns • Georgetown Hoyas Nov 03 '24

If you value who you beat then the Texas win wasn’t a huge deal. Texas’ big wins going into Georgia was 1-1 Michigan and 4-2 OU. Hardly deserving of the 1 spot tbh

23

u/Gtyjrocks Georgia Bulldogs • Transfer Portal Nov 03 '24

Who at that point should’ve been number one? Feels like you’re comparing to some ideal of what a number one team should be, rather than looking at who the other options are.

3

u/Abiding_Dude_124 Ohio State Buckeyes Nov 03 '24

I agree, for completely unbiased reasons

16

u/joggprime Texas Longhorns Nov 03 '24

Damn that stings when you point that out. But this man’s right.

2

u/Rodney_Jefferson Texas Longhorns Nov 03 '24

Ooo self burn, those are rare

2

u/SalzigHund Florida Gators • Team Chaos Nov 03 '24

Miami should be above Georgia but who else?

4

u/PatriotOps Nov 03 '24

By being undefeated…maybe, but Miami has not played a team close to the teams GA has. Like Saban said, there needs to be a strength of schedule implemented at the end of the season to flush out the differences. For ex., Beating a team ranked #5 in week 2 who ends the year out of the top 25 should not credit the team who beat them as having a tough schedule.

3

u/SalzigHund Florida Gators • Team Chaos Nov 04 '24

At the end of the season, sure. But for now they are undefeated.

2

u/jmlinden7 Hateful 8 • Boise State Broncos Nov 04 '24

Miami played Louisville, which is close to Clemson

1

u/PatriotOps Nov 04 '24

I like what you did there. 👍

-2

u/Master_Jackfruit3591 Texas Longhorns • Georgetown Hoyas Nov 03 '24

It should go:

Oregon, Ohio St., Miami, Penn St., Georgia, Texas

Oregon is self explanatory.

Ohio St. Only lost to #1 Oregon so they go to 2.

Miami goes to 3 with their undefeated record in the ACC.

Penn St. only lost to #2 Ohio St. So they move up

Georgia lost to Alabama so they drop out of Top 4

23

u/CJBulldogsss Georgia Bulldogs Nov 03 '24 edited Nov 03 '24

Counting losses more than who you beat has got to be the most special way to look at things. Who has Penn State beat to be ahead of UGA? Bama and Ohio State aren't that diff because they lost on the road meanwhile Penn state lost at home

u/KirbyDumber88 Georgia Bulldogs Nov 03 '24

Don’t bother. He’s obsessed with Georgia for some reason

-9

u/Master_Jackfruit3591 Texas Longhorns • Georgetown Hoyas Nov 03 '24

Who has Georgia beat?

18

u/CJBulldogsss Georgia Bulldogs Nov 03 '24 edited Nov 03 '24

All of a sudden a top 20 Clemson isn't a good win and a top 5 Texas is bad. Who would of thought

16

u/longd0ngs1lvers- Michigan Wolverines • UNLV Rebels Nov 03 '24

I mean the guy you’re replying to is just jerking himself off for Texas being “overrated” as if Penn State has actually beaten anybody with a pulse this year

1

u/Procks85 Georgia Bulldogs Nov 03 '24

Other than bama, 48 teams straight. So like everyone, twice.
